Features: Founded in 1928, Jiangsu Qidong High School is one of the first national model high schools and is located in Qidong City, known as "North Shanghai" with its unique blend of riverside and coastal charm in the Yangtze River Delta. After eighty years of, it has become a first-class modern school in China with significant international influence, and its name is renowned across the nation. Qidong High School currently has 99 teaching classes and over 5,600 students. It boasts a strong faculty, including 1 Ph.D., 24 master's degree holders, 3 provincial young and middle-aged experts, nearly 100 senior and advanced-level teachers, as well as a large number of provincial and municipal subject leaders and core teachers. The school is equipped with first-class laboratories, libraries, gymnasiums, art halls, observatories, science museums, and multimedia and distance education networks, meeting students' needs for reading, training, and personalized development. In recent years, the school has continuously strengthened exchanges and cooperation with other provinces and internationally, establishing 4 new branch schools. Over the years, the school has adhered to the educational philosophy of "developing individual talents, promoting comprehensive development, and laying a foundation for lifelong learning," actively implementing quality education with remarkable achievements. Through long-term educational practice, Qidong High School has gradually formed its distinctive educational style: "putting people first, prioritizing moral education, solidifying foundational knowledge, and fostering individuality"; its guiding principle: "everything for the students, for all students, and for the sake of all students"; and its key strategy: "scientific education and research-driven school development." The school is following the educational approach of "comprehensive education and cultivating specialized talents," advancing step by step, and its reputation is further solidified. A group of outstanding teachers and subject leaders at Qidong High School, in addition to their teaching duties, diligently strengthen educational research and the study of middle and high school examination questions, establishing their own question bank and achieving excellent teaching results. To sincerely express gratitude to sister schools across the country and meet the aspirations of educators and students, at the kind invitation of the renowned and authoritative scientific publishing house (Longmen Bookstore), our school has organized dozens of senior and advanced-level teachers and top coaches from the frontline of teaching. Combining years of teaching experience, especially since the "3+X" new college entrance examination reform and the new curriculum reform, we have meticulously planned and compiled this scientific and practical "Qidong High School Homework Series." This is the first official collaboration between Qidong High School and a national-level publishing house, and we have specially authorized Longmen Bookstore to exclusively use our registered "Qidong High School" trademark for the publication. The collaboration between Qidong High School and Longmen Bookstore in launching this series reflects our school's teaching practices and experience in nurturing top students and addressing learning gaps. It is pure and authentic, and we believe it will be highly favored by readers.
This edition of the "Qidong High School Homework Series" has been carefully revised. The revision is based on the new "Teaching Syllabus," "Examination Guidelines," and "New Curriculum Standards." The design of the series incorporates innovations, including sub-sections such as [Review and Preview], [Classroom Homework], [After-School Homework], and [Olympiad Links]. The revision also introduces bold innovations in question design, reflecting a fresh, contemporary style with new themes, structures, scenarios, question formats, and open-ended explorations, aligning with the trends of the new round of curriculum, teaching, and examination reforms. This makes the series more suitable for students and schools at different levels. It not only strengthens foundational knowledge but also enhances learning and exam-taking skills.
During the revision, the following guiding principles and features have been fully highlighted:
1. Layered and Progressive Question Structure: The questions are designed to cater to the teaching realities of underdeveloped regions in central and western China and the diverse needs of teachers and students regarding "exercises." Each question is labeled with hollow letters (A, B, C) at the beginning to indicate its approximate difficulty level, facilitating differentiated instruction and improving the effectiveness of homework.
2. Practical and Effective Lesson-Based Design: Unlike traditional teaching aids, this series is designed by lesson, making it suitable for classroom use. It is practical, effective, and highly operable. It integrates thinking into practice, focusing on solving the questions students should "practice" and "how to practice" in each lesson.
3. Detailed and Standardized Explanations: The answers are thoroughly analyzed, highlighting key knowledge points and basic methods, and providing insights into problem-solving techniques. This addresses both "how to solve" and "how to think about solving" the problems, making it widely applicable. Each homework assignment is marked with a time limit and scoring criteria, allowing students to work independently and improve their practice quality more effectively. Thus, this series can also be considered a self-assessment tool for students.
4. Innovative and Extraordinary Educational Philosophy: The series fully reflects the requirements of the new round of teaching and curriculum reforms, embodying the educational philosophy and principles of the new curriculum. It showcases extraordinary thinking. The selection of questions follows the principle of "originality and classics," emphasizing the development and research of "ability-based, open-ended, applied, and comprehensive" questions. Each subject's homework series includes a certain number of newly created original questions by the authors in this revision.
From the perspective of the "three exams" (examination syllabus, key points, and actual questions), this series is a superior supplementary material for students in junior and senior high school, guiding them in learning, practice, and exams.
During the writing and revision of this series, despite our efforts to review every chapter and question, and despite multiple rounds of proofreading over several months, some errors and omissions may still exist. We sincerely welcome feedback from readers to help us correct them promptly.
